This month's journal based article is titled: Outcomes Analysis of Y90 Radioembolization for Tumors Other Than Metastatic Colorectal Cancer from the RESiN (Raditaion-Emitting SIR-spheres in Non-resectable Liver Tumors) Registry
Following completion of this CME activity, the participant will be able to:
- Understand when to consider hepatic radioembolization for m-nonCRC metastases.
- Describe the overall survival in this patient population and which patients may benefit more or less from radioembolization.
- Understand risk factors associated with a poorer progression free survival.
This program is designed to meet the educational needs of interventional radiologists, nurses, techs, and trainees at all levels with special interest in managing patients with secondary liver malignancies.
